Is this possible?


Recommended Posts

I'll be going back to school tomorrow unfortunately. This means for the internet I'll have to toddle off to the various IT rooms but will be able to bring my own pc in - it's a boarding school.

There is no provision for internet access in our rooms. However, in each boarding house there is an eMac that is wirelessly networked to the central servers. If I bought a wireless networking card (linksys etc..) do you think it would be possible to pick up on the connection and connect to the internet?

Instinct tells me probably not - but I can dream.....

Grateful for any help.

i'm sure there would be a way to just a grab the key off of the emac that's already using it.

they might use other software to approve connections, so even if you can knock on the door, they won't let you in.

but since wireless cards are so cheap, i recommend picking one up and giving it a try.
